Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL)

We help you measure what matters, learn from your work, and communicate your impact with integrity and evidence. Our MEL services are designed to strengthen accountability and inform strategic adaptation.

MEL Frameworks and Tools

We design robust systems and mechanisms that enable consistent data collection, analysis, and use, ensuring you can track progress towards your strategic goals effectively.

  • Customized MEL System Design

    Developing comprehensive MEL plans that align with your Theory of Change, donor requirements, and organizational values, including defining relevant indicators (quantitative and qualitative).

  • Performance Monitoring Plans (PMPs)

    Creating detailed PMPs that establish clear monitoring schedules, data collection responsibilities, and standardized reporting processes.

  • Baseline, Mid-term, and Endline Studies

    Managing and executing rigorous studies to establish benchmarks and measure change at key intervals of the project cycle.

Data Analysis and Reporting

We transform raw data into clear, actionable insights, providing the evidence needed for transparent decision-making and compelling communication with stakeholders.

  • Quantitative and Qualitative Data Analysis

    Employing appropriate statistical and thematic analysis techniques to interpret results, identify trends, and understand the 'why' behind the numbers.

  • Impact Reporting and Visualization

    Developing high-quality reports, dashboards, and visualizations that clearly communicate program achievements, challenges, and lessons learned to diverse audiences (e.g., board, donors, communities).

  • Accountability and Feedback Loops

    Establishing systems to ensure data and performance results are regularly shared with project staff and community members to foster transparency and allow for course correction.

  • Data Quality Assessments (DQAs)

    Conducting targeted reviews to ensure the data collected is reliable, valid, timely, and meets the highest standards of integrity and stewardship.

Outcome Harvesting and Learning Events

We prioritize organizational learning and adaptation, helping you capture both intended and unintended outcomes to continuously improve strategy and maximize social impact.

  • Learning Agenda Development

    Working with leadership to define key learning questions that drive knowledge generation and challenge organizational assumptions about impact.

  • Outcome Harvesting Methodology

    Facilitating the systematic identification, documentation, and analysis of achieved changes (outcomes) influenced by your work, regardless of whether they were planned.

  • Reflective Learning Workshops

    Designing and leading structured events for staff and partners to collectively review performance data, analyze findings, and translate lessons learned into concrete operational changes.

  • Knowledge Management Advisory

    Advising on systems and processes for documenting, storing, sharing, and utilizing organizational knowledge and best practices for future program design.
